Finally, to ensure he could fully appreciate the sensation of track riding, during post-production Blatz took the opportunity to experience real life on-track thrills and joined Triumph Motorcycles at the legendary Circuito de Jerez to ride the new Street Triple 765 RS in its desired setting alongside motorcycle industry journalists. The experience further informed Kelly as he was making final edits to the film.
Triumph Racing Heritage
Triumph Motorcycles played a pivotal role in the film, as a Triumph Daytona 765 Moto2™ Limited Edition equipped with a Moto2Style race faring became central to the movie's thrilling racing storyline. With a rich history dating back to the early 20th century, Triumph has a storied racing and performance legacy, including multiple Isle of Man TT and Daytona 200 wins, and many land speed records over the years. Presently this racing heritage has led Triumph to become the exclusive engine supplier for the Moto2™ World Championship since 2019. The triple cylinder 765cc Moto2 engine platform is known for its power, reliability, and performance, and is a testament to Triumph's engineering prowess and racing pedigree.
Applying knowledge gained from the Moto2 engine program, Triumph has continued to introduce new and updated production motorcycles, which have enjoyed success in their modern racing efforts. In 2022, a Street Triple 765 RS powered Brandon Paasch to a Daytona 200 victory, using the same powerplant as the Moto2 World Championship as well as the Daytona 765 in the film. So far in 2024, the Street Triple 765 RS and all-new Daytona 660 are both enjoying strong seasons, with many podiums each in the Bennetts British Superbike Championship and the World Superbike Championship.
